IBKUL UPF 50+ Clothing Help You Savor the Sun Safely & Stylishly

February 5, 2023 By: Alison Blackman

The sun is a good thing for our planet.  In fact, we would die without the sun,  However, by now you also know those rays can cause serious damage to your skin. IBKUL clothing helps protect your skin from the sun’s damaging rays and does it, stylishly. 
 

IBKÜL Offers UPF Clothing for People Big and Small:

IBKUL Stock PHOTO BIANCA SKORT black and white printIn the Fall of 2021 advicesisters.com reviewed a great UPF 50+ skort “Bianca”  from IBKUL. The company also has a patented IceFil technology that regulates your body temperature as you move, is moisture-wicking, and of course, with UPF50+ protection. We loved the way it looked, felt, and performed. 

Why is UPF Clothing and Why Would You Wear It?

Why would you want UPF clothing? Skin cancer rates continue to rise.  No matter your age or where you live, the sun is out there and prevention is the best defense against deadly skin cancers. UPF 50+ offers superior sun protection.
 
Products with SPF ratings tell you how much longer it will take for your skin to begin to redden with the product on than if your skin was unprotected. Normally SPF products are most commonly makeup or skincare/sunscreen. However, UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. It is the amount of ultraviolet radiation that a fabric blocks.  When you see a UPF rating you are looking for a fabric that provides one of the most convenient forms of protection against ultraviolet radiation.   Therefore, UPF clothing 50+ will protect your skin in the areas that the fabric covers. 
IBKUL’s moisture-wicking, fast-drying fabric keeps you comfortable even when it’s hot, But it also has antimicrobial for odor protection. The fabric is smooth and lightweight and feels really nice on your skin. 

Sizes:

In general IBKUL pieces are generously sized. If you like your clothing looser, go up a size but otherwise, pick the size that you normally wear. There is also a size chart on the website. 

The IBKUL Ruthie Shirt:

The Ruthie Print Long Sleeve Mock Neck Top  (sizes xs-xxl) – 10486 ($100) is very special. The war in Ukraine is creating a desperate humanitarian crisis.  The blue and yellow of the Ukrainian flag on this gorgeous Ruthie print features the sunflower, the national flower of Ukraine. IBKUL has committed to donating 100% of the gross profits from sales of this top while supplies last, plus a one-time $5,000.00 donation, to Mercy Corps* to support their humanitarian efforts in Ukraine. 

In the top photo for the IBKUL Ruthie shirt,  I’m posing with a multi-color solar light from Solight-Designs. It’s a little folding cube with a velcro handle. Leave it in the sun and when it’s charged, tie it anywhere and let it add atmosphere to your home, garden, or party. Solight Designs is featured in another advicesisters.com story.

I’m holding this solar cube by the velcro handle from Solight Designs. It can be a number of colors. I chose purple!

I love the cheerful design on this shirt which can go from day to evening, easily. This Ruthie Shirt is  92% Nylon, and 8% Polyurethane. And, Iceƒil technology converts your own sweat to refrigerant, lowering your temperature by up to five degrees. Mesh underarm panels provide more breathability while the fabric keeps your skin safe from the sun’s UVA/UVB rays.

It isn’t UPF 50+ but it has the same iceƒil fabric as the other clothing that lowers your temperature by up to five degrees in hot and humid weather. I’m testing it out and I’m sleeping better. So cute and so comfy!
